A clinical predictive score of high liver iron content in metabolic hyperferritinemia: a retrospective cohort pilot study
in this pilot study, ferritin ≥ 600 µg/L, transferrin saturation ≥ 45% and a family history of hyperferritinemia requiring bloodletting provided a simple clinical score to predict high liver iron content in metabolic adult hyperferritinemia. The bootstrap analysis confirmed the robustness of our model.
